Meaning

Oh Mind!  sport in Rama, who is dark like the cloud and he is the ultimate bliss.
He destroyed all the wicked demons and is extremely lovely.
He is an expert in removing the sorrow of Samsara to those who bow at his feet.  His face outshines the moon.
His bow shines, destroying demons like Khara. His forehead shines with Kasturi Tilaka.
He is worshiped by gods like Indra.  Just as the strong wind dispels the cloud, he dispels sins.  He is the abode of compassion and he is Lord Padmanabha.
